    I met my goal!

    Mar 30: 3 mile run

    30.5 out of 30 miles

    I decided if Curvy could do it, so could I. I ran in the morning again, but instead of rolling right out of bed into the street, I had my coffee and waited an hour before I ran. Much better for the stomach! I was still struggling toward the end, but finished in 37:30.
    And you did! Yeah, Tabbycat (very deserving of a dancing carrot AND banana) Yep, sometimes a tweak in our usual plan or process can make a world of difference.
  • Quote: Thanks, curvynotlumpy and immaculate! You too did SO well, this month! Today's my cardio day, but tomorrow I'm gonna kettlebell it up and meet my goal for the month. It's a testament to 3FC and forum participants that I even stayed so dedicated to the goal... Seriously, for me, even a wedding isn't enough of a motivation.

    Great job meeting your goal, too, Tabbycat!
    I agree with immaculate; all that kettlebell swinging/lifting combined with cardio must have you feeling very confident and fit. Please don't let that natural "but just a little bit more" impulse put a damper on ALL your hard work and current results. You're going look beautiful! And you're so right about the 3FC forums. I really like the accountability aspect of the challenges, too.

  • Next month I am picking a better one!
  • I re-adjusted my goal around the fifteenth because I realized that 200 miles was way to much. hahaha. Anyway, my goal was 100+ miles and no Sundays or Tuesdays....

    So, I exercised most Sundays and Tuesdays anyway....and I walked/rode/or ran 136 miles.

    I would say Goal! but if you're going by my initial 200, then nope. :-)
  • Woohoo, Katie9399! Way to finish! Re-assessing mid-month is definitely a good strategy!
